luxury house for sale Moncrabeau, France (page 5)

This is a well-maintained and functional property built in 1960 and subsequently renovated by the present owners. It offers the possibility of a large family home with four bedrooms and ample living space, or alternately two 2-bedroom homes, one on each level. The Ground Floor We enter the house through a wide glass door to the living room area. This is really practical as you can park just outside and bring the shopping straight into the house. Great for rainy cold days in the winter months. On the right there is a light filled bedroom with floor-to-ceiling windows. Next, we find the boiler room which houses the heat pump which provides hot water and heat to the whole house. There are two further double bedrooms on this level as well as a shower room and separate WC. There is also a good-sized a kitchen/laundry room as well as ample storage space. A staircase (which could be closed off) leads to the first floor. The Upper Floor We can access this floor either from the ground floor, or by means of an exterior staircase that leads to a wide terrace. A double door that keeps the cold out leads to the heart of this house -the wide sun-filled living room with open plan dining area. Here, the attractive parquet flooring combined with the large South-facing windows, give an air of spaciousness and endless summer. This is enhanced by the terrace, with its electric awning and views over the garden. The ideal place to have breakfast in the summer, or sip a cool drink after the heat of the day! There is a pretty brick fireplace here – it is not currently in use but it is fully serviceable. Behind the living room there is a fully equipped kitchen with views over the garden. The first bedroom on this floor has a private shower and wash basin, as well as attractive views over the garden and fields. The second bedroom is also a double. The family bathroom on this floor has a half-bath, a walk-in shower and double sinks – and a view! A separate WC (also with view) completes this level. The Garden The owners of this property have lovingly improved upon their 3000 m² garden over the years. they have planted numerous trees and flower beds, and the result is charming without being overpowering. There are two wells, one of which provides all the water for the property, and many mature trees. There are extensive lawns to the front and back of the property, and as it is entirely fenced, it is perfect for children to play in. The town hall has confirmed that it would be possible to put a swimming pool in (although planning permission would still be necessary). There is ample parking on the pebbled driveway, but there are also carports for two cars, and a closed garage for one car, or a lot of garden tools and furniture. The double gates are electric, and can be opened from the house. Information on the risks to which this property is exposed is available on the GeoHazards website: http://www.georisques.gouv.fr

Overview This immaculate four-bedroom property was built in the late 1982s. The property sits down a quiet rural lane where there are just a handful of houses set far apart from the property. This peaceful location offers surprisingly easy access to both Agen (with its TGV fast train to Paris) and the nearby town of Astaffort - a town put on the map thanks to one if its locals, the much loved musician Francis Cabrel. The beautifully maintained gardens offer all the delights of a rural property, with a multitude of fruit trees, ornamental trees, shrubs and plants. There is a substantial vegetable plot providing year-round produce, and a fenced-in area where there are a cluster of hens and three friendly geese. With spacious terraces extending to the front and to the rear of the property, the pool area sits to the rear of the property. There is an outbuilding for the storage of garden equipment and an underground parking area.

In a word, this property is all about the VIEWS. Built in a raised position and dominating the landscape, this imposing country home is positioned to admire the sweep of fields and woodland. The mellow stone walls embrace the sunsets and as is clear from the photographs that illustrate this advert, provide an ever-changing tableau of colour. The skies up here are vast. The owner shares a collection of photographs from over the years. Each one depicts a different and dramatic sunset, the colours never quite the same, all with vibrant flashes of pink, oranges, purple and red. There is a wild timelessness about this view, as it stretches far into the distance without the interruption or another house or building. Sitting on the gravel terrace and looking down at the sweep of the valley, there is a sensation of being on the rim of the world. The beloved country estate of the same family for many years, the property was a retreat to which the owner could invite friends from Paris, principally to party, and in later years to live full-time. This property was the dream of one man, who like the Great Gatsby, developed his home around his own desire for comfort, space, luxury and amusement. The rooms are vast. If you like to spread out, there isn’t a risk of ever feeling cramped here. There are some quirky remnants, the vestiges of another world. This is possibly the only property you will ever find with two 1970s bathtubs in one bathroom, positioned to view a TV screen, and with place for the bottle of Champagne. The property does not take itself too seriously, except in the serious business of space and fun. The walls are full of pictures of parties held there, and interesting people who came to feast and dance. As with all properties that are firmly rooted in another time, and place, it is fixed in time, and with regards to the bathrooms, and carpets, new owners will need to rip away the décor of the 1970s, the personality of the previous owners, and expose the bare bones of the property.The bones are good. The rooms are vast, and the property designed around a central courtyard and a long internal gallery. Some of the rooms have a more traditional feel than others, with fine terracotta floor tiles, and stone walls. Other rooms will most likely want to shed their carpets and cladding. There is a mix of styles; traditional Gascon manor house, Spanish villa, or perhaps in parts something slightly Moresque about the woodwork and the detail of the fret work. A second much older cottage sits at the entrance of the property, far removed from the main house, and provides perfect guest accommodation, or home for a guardian. Let’s begin our tour with a look at the main house The formal entrance to the property opens onto a large gallery hallway which in turn opens onto a central courtyard. The family prefer to use the kitchen entrance daily. The Kitchen The kitchen is the heart of the house, divided into three separate zones, this large and spacious room has a breakfast table, a formal dining area, and has a cosy workspace at the far end with an oven range and ceramic tiles. If you were to ask which part of the house is the most traditional, then without a doubt it is the kitchen. With thick oak beams running across the ceiling, a decorative stone sink, and a choice of traditional fixtures and fittings, this is a Gascon kitchen worthy of any French country home. Currently filled with a lifetime of bits and pieces, there is nothing minimalistic about this room, by any stretch of the imagination, and yet it still manages to feel spacious. The kitchen opens in turn both onto the internal hallway to the formal entrance and to the central reception room. This vast living space, with its fireplace, has views to the gardens through tall French windows along the full length of the room. This is a tremendous space in which to party or sit by the fire in a smaller committee. It is a family living space, incorporating an occasional study desk, and various sitting areas. In summer the windows are thrown open to the terrace, and to the fabulous view towards the vast stretch of horizon and the woodland beyond. Besides the main reception room, there is a second study or library, which in turns opens out to a downstairs bedroom and bathroom. The master suite encompasses a huge amount of surface area, with the infamous bathroom, which is spacious enough to dance in, not to mention its two bathtubs… The master bedroom is equally generous in size. Future occupants to the property might wish to rethink how the rooms are used. There is certainly more than enough space to play around with. The master bathroom could perhaps become a bedroom with an ensuite. It is certainly spacious enough. The property was designed so that the sleeping accommodation is almost entirely reserved for Monsieur and Madame, with guests retiring to the cottage at the bottom of the garden. All rooms are on the ground floor. There are no stairs; each room flowing to the next in circular fashion around a central terrace, like a Riyad. There is a guest cloak room behind a decorative wooden door in the main hallway. The Guest Accommodation At the entrance to the cottage, there is a large guest cottage, with a kitchen, living room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. This cottage was once the original building on the plot and is rustic in style with much smaller rooms, steps and stairs between levels and a quirky layout. The Pool There is a swimming pool and an outbuilding for storage next to the pool, with a covered terrace for summer dining. The pool has not been used recently and will need to be filled again and put back into service. There are lovely views from the pool and it sits at a good distance from the main house.

A restored farmhouse and tobacco drying shed in enclosed grounds with grounds and 1 hectare of land which can be built on overlooking the Garonne, near Agen. In the heart of an old, now residential, part of the village where the farmhouse and its outbuildings are located, next to the agglomeration of Agen, a small street runs alongside the property, just a stone's throw from the church square. It is accessed via a gate on the house side and an automatic gate on the outbuilding side. The two buildings are located in the southern part of the property, on either side of grounds with old trees, and bordered by hedges and fencing. The main building is two storeys high with a gable roof with canal tiles, bordered by a double row of genoises. Two single-storey wings flank the building on either side, forming a long complex running the full length of the building from south to north. Built out of brick and stone, this 240 m² residence was renovated in the 2000s and again in 2017, using quality materials that give it a timeless look. Formerly a tobacco drying shed, the outbuilding is now used as a workshop and annex to the main building or as a garage. With a floor surface area of around 80 m², the building is two storeys high and has a fibre cement sheet roof. The facades have numerous windows on the upper floors, and the metal elements give the whole an industrial feel. To the north, a vast 1 hectare square meadow is bordered by concrete barriers. It provides horses with a comfortable grazing area, complemented by a second, non-adjoining plot of land, also 1 hectare in size, situated below the property on the banks of the Garonne. Stalls with a surface area of around 20 m² back onto the former tobacco drying shed, now an outbuilding used for DIY. The dominant part of this plot is set away from other houses in the area. It can be built on, and could be used for all kinds of projects, from leisure activities such as a swimming pool, to personal or professional possibilities.

A generous 13th century town residence set in extensive grounds of approx 2000 m², in the heart of the Lot-et-Garonne department. At the end of the 18th century, the mansion served as a residence for senior staff members of the chateau, just a few metres away. Built in line with the adjoining houses, it is the first at the entrance to the street. Like the neighbouring houses, it is three storeys high and has a rendered stone facade with dressed stone corner quoins and window surrounds, which are perfectly juxtaposed. The evenly spaced, small-paned windows with wooden frames are protected by solid wooden shutters. The overall architectural style is harmonious and sober. A garden with box hedges sheltered by large trees at the front of the main facade provides a welcome screen of greenery. A semi-private driveway shared with the neighbours separates the garden from the mansion. On the main facade of the residence, a large metal gate provides access to the garage. Continuing on, a massive oak door forms the service entry. The main entrance follows in the form of a carved oak double door with a glazed transom. The gable roof is clad with Roman tiles. To the rear, there is an outbuilding set at right-angles to the main house, protecting it from noise pollution and prying eyes. The dwelling not only forms part of the local history of the 18th century, it is also the birthplace of the artist Raoul Dastrac, a post-impressionist painter from the first half of the 20th century who was born and died in Aiguillon. After his training with Laurens and Dechenaud in Paris, he exhibited regularly at the Salon des Artistes Français and the Salon d'Automne from 1922 onwards. A painter of local life, he set up his easel in Cahors and Avignon, in Italy and in the United States. As he was also an art connoisseur, his own canvases and other collections were displayed in his residence during the latter part of his life.
